I wouldn't usually crop this much, but I wanted to compare to Topaz Ai 2.0 (Black Friday sale), and from the demo, even upscaled, I could barely see a difference on this well-exposed shot.

Small Renaissance festival last weekend: photographer seen here "at work" networking after taking photos of costumed patron. I never did get a chance to ask him about his lens and camera setup...

Better not let his boss see him with that phone. They take these things very seriously.

Not here in South Florida, they "break character" very often. He could have also been a guest in costume, which is also very popular here.
 
Yes, he was on a slope between the snow and the water.

It was around 8:42 am under partly cloudy skies. The temperature was 3 degrees Celsius (37 degrees Fahrenheit), with winds to 20 km/hr (12 mph)
 
Goodness... I hope she got a lot more than walnuts for that shoot! 🥶
 
Here are a few from the streets of New York in December.

She grabbed her coat, hat, and gloves as soon as she got her shot. It was chilly.

I don't know what they were shooting. The big one on the right is a 600 mm f/4.0 with an A1.

These ladies came over and asked what I was photographing and so I pointed out the reflection of St.Paul's in the pond. They immediately whipped out their phones and jumped in front of me and started photographing. So I thought I'd take one of them photographing the reflection.

I was more reflecting on their selfishness in pushing in front of you - selfish -> selfie.
 
Reflecting the photographer. This is a newly installed art installation outside Liverpool Street Elizabeth Line Tube station. I believe it was opened only last week. You can see me in most of the images taking the shot. I wanted to submit the first or last image into the August Reflection competition, but I wasn't sure if these were better 'reflection' images than the one of St. Paul's I've entered?
